EN: Metallic nail polish has been among the trends for the last A '11/W '12 season and I've been hooked since then but I admired most the mirror look of such manicures, such as the ones Ivelina (FriChic) had. I like her blog very much abnd she always inspires me with her outfits, plus, what would a manicure be without a great outfit, or maybe the other way around.

But back to the nail polishes, excuse my additions, you know that I can't help myself sometimes. :) There have been metallic nail polishes from Chanel (the famous Peridot and Graphite) to Orly Foil FX and many other brands, as with everything, a trend is taken by every other brand, thus the diversity and many options, from cheaper to more expensive, from a poor quality to a the good one.

As I've written, the mirror aspect of metallic manicures was my favorite and from my searches I've reached to the conclusion that the way to get this look is with the nail wraps from Nail Rock, you can buy them on Asos for 6,7 pounds. Another option, if you find it anywhere is the Mirror Image set from Maybelline, but I find that the result is not that impressive, or you can go for the Stargazer Chrome nail polishes (you ca easily find these on ebay) but again, not quite the same look.

And finally, let me tell you about my metallic nail polish, Flormar, part of the new Pretty collection of 30 mini nail polishes. Just soon after they launched the collection I published 2 pictures on my Facebook page with all the colors, as well as some dupes for them from the classic Flormar collections. If you missed them, I've put them here also for you to see (if you're interested in the dupes please check on Facebook).

So, as soon as I saw the colors I instantly knew that I was going to get his color and paint my nails in silver. More so, I thought it would also be a great base for my China Glaze holo nail polish, and I was right, Sexagon looks great on 1 coat of this silver color. Also, after doing the research on the other silver metallic nail polishes, I find that P05 is almost identical to the one from Orly Foil FX, what do you think?

The color: Flormar Pretty P05

The aplicator: classic but smaller than the ones for the normal Flormar collection and I loved it because I found it easier to use

Coverage: uniform and opaque coverage with 2 coats

Resistance: see for yourselves, the pictures were taken after a week of wearing this nail polish

Drying time: ok, I didn't encounter problems

Other notable aspects: - the consistency and aplicator make very easy to apply on the nails, no messy lines or other incovenients
